Survey Says: We Hate Spam

from the well...-yeah dept

It almost seems like just as much a waste of people's time as spam itself. Why would you bother taking a survey to find out that almost everyone wants to get rid of spam? In this case (of course), the survey was done by an anti-spam software vendor for the sake of publicity (though, this article leaves out which vendor). What's more interesting to me though, is that I want to find out about the 12% of people who don't hate spam. Who are they? What are they thinking? Are they just the spammers themselves?

Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.

Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.

While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.

–The Techdirt Team
